FINANCIAL GUIDANCE(2):
The Company is providing guidance for total revenues, adjusted homebuilding gross margin, adjusted income before income taxes and adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and for the full fiscal year. Financial guidance below assumes no adverse changes in current market conditions, including further deterioration in our supply chain or material increases in mortgage rates, inflation or cancellation rates, and excludes further impact to SG&A expenses from phantom stock expense related solely to stock price movements from the closing price of $147.83 on April 30, 2024.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2024, total revenues are expected to be between $675 million and $775 million, adjusted homebuilding gross margin is expected to be between 21.5% and 23.5%, adjusted income before income taxes is expected to be between $65 million and $75 million and adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $97 million and $107 million.
For the full fiscal year, total revenues are expected to be between $2.75 billion and $3.00 billion, adjusted homebuilding gross margin is expected to be between 21.5% and 23.0%, adjusted income before income taxes is expected to be between $265 million and $300 million, adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $395 million and $430 million and fully diluted earnings per share is expected to be between $25 and $29. At the midpoint of our guidance, we anticipate our common book value per share to increase by 45% at October 31, 2024 to approximately $106 per share compared to last year’s value at year-end of $73 per share.
(2)The Company cannot provide a reconciliation between its non-GAAP projections and the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items required for the reconciliation. These items include, but are not limited to, land-related charges, inventory impairments and land option write-offs and loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, net. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results.
COMMENTS FROM MANAGEMENT:
“Given the rising mortgage rate environment, we are extremely pleased with our performance during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Our adjusted EBITDA and adjusted pretax income were both significantly above the high end of our guidance,” stated Ara K. Hovnanian, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are firmly in the higher-for-longer mortgage rate environment yet demand for new homes remains resilient. Our contracts per community for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 increased to 13.9, which was 22% higher than the average second quarter contracts per community since 1997. Website visits and foot traffic in our communities continues to be strong.”
“After paying down over $741 million of debt over the past several years, we are now in a position where we will shift our primary focus to growth rather than using cash flow for further debt reduction in the near term. We expect future revenue growth will facilitate the achievement of both economies of scale and higher levels of profits which will improve our credit metrics and enhance our balance sheet by increasing equity levels. The housing market continues to be driven by an ongoing shortage of housing supply, a stable economy with low levels of unemployment and robust demographic trends. We are optimistic that we will be able to capitalize on these positive fundamentals and continue to deliver top-tier industry returns to our shareholders,” concluded Mr. Hovnanian.
